"Attack!"
Jiang Chen wasted no breath, issuing the command immediately. The four great true spirits each unleashed their divine abilities, lunging at Ancestor Xieying with bared fangs and claws, their combined aura overwhelming.
Jiang Chen had long anticipated the combined fighting power of the four great true spirits, and had witnessed it firsthand. After his adjustments and refinements, the coordination between them had only grown sharper.
The four great true spirits chained their powers to seal off the void, erecting barriers that were virtually unstoppable. Forget cultivators of equal rank — even crossing tiers to kill an enemy was child's play for them.
Ancestor Xieying had been overconfident, pouring everything into breaking free from the seal. The last thing he expected was that the other side would attack without warning, and with such terrifying force.
Only when the four great true spirits struck in unison did Ancestor Xieying realize he had made a colossal mistake — underestimating his enemy.
These four true spirits' attacks were nothing any human Divine Path cultivator could compare to.
Originally, Ancestor Xieying had assumed that someone like Jiang Chen, a mere early-stage Divine Path cultivator, couldn't hurt him even if he stood there and took it without fighting back.
Who could have guessed that the moment they moved, the attack would be this devastating? The sky went dark, the earth went dim — it felt as though the entire void had been completely sealed off.
A chill shot up Ancestor Xieying's spine. For the first time, he felt the crisis of life and death hanging by a thread.
In the brief moment Ancestor Xieying's mind wavered,
"Old Shadow, a cultivator of the Glazed Palace has come to collect your life!"
Seeing Xia Tianze throw himself recklessly into the fray, Jiang Chen didn't dare slack off either. He hurriedly activated the Grand Glazed Light Lamp, coordinating with everyone's attacks.
The Grand Glazed Light Lamp — Jiang Chen remembered very clearly what the Glazed Grand Sovereign had said about it.
He had said that the Grand Glazed Light Lamp could multiply the speed of attacks several times over. Moreover, once the Grand Glazed Light was activated, it could strike the opponent, restrain the opponent, boost speed, and amplify spiritual power — offense and defense unified, with limitless potential. Against metal-element attacks, it could enhance sharpness; against wood-element attacks, it could enhance resilience; against water-element attacks, it could enhance might; against fire-element attacks, it could enhance ferocity; against earth-element attacks, it could enhance vastness. All five elements in harmony, with boundless creation.
Right now, Jiang Chen was eager to test the Grand Glazed Light Lamp's true power.
So he bided his time, and whenever they attacked, he channeled the Grand Glazed Light to amplify their strikes.
After observing for a while, Jiang Chen found that it was exactly as the Glazed Grand Sovereign had described — the Grand Glazed Light Lamp's power amplification was flawless.
If it weren't for the fact that Jiang Chen hadn't fully refined it yet, the degree of enhancement could have been far greater.
Even so, Ancestor Xieying was already struggling to hold on. He barely had the breathing room to curse.
Pinned down by the four great true spirits, he was being forced back step by step, his life hanging in the balance.
And Xia Tianze's all-out attacks, bolstered by Jiang Chen's amplification, were more than enough to threaten his life. In this state of being beaten without any chance to fight back, no matter how many divine abilities Ancestor Xieying possessed, he couldn't bring them to bear.
Besides, the Shadow Demons' strength had never been in head-on confrontation.
If not for the Shadow Demons' exceptional speed and their mastery of evasion, Ancestor Xieying would have died two or three times over already. But even so, he was barely surviving by the skin of his teeth, and the effort was taking a tremendous toll.
As for Jiang Chen, he continuously harassed Ancestor Xieying with the Grand Glazed Light — controlling his speed, restricting his speed, wearing it down.
